This is probably the most popular response to a first-timer's statement, "We're going to try The Little Village tonight." Our famous appetizer consists of a braided Italian sesame loaf, baked fresh to order. Removed from the oven, it's set on a platter, brushed with virgin olive oil, slapped with a dash of cracked black pepper and topped off with a coating of fresh-grated Romano cheese. We drizzle on a little more olive oil for good measure and then serve it with a side of our signature olive tapannade. It is an edible work of art. If you come see us, you have to get the bread.

Our Little Village bread was named “Best Bread in Baton Rouge” by 225 Magazine.
